    I recently just bought a 2016 Taco SR5 rear-wheel-drive V6 with 16,000 miles on it! Very excited but a little concerned with living in Massachusetts driving in the snow, I barely made it out of my driveway this morning with less than an inch of snow...

    What kind of limitations am I looking at driving this? I commute about an hour to work right now, should I put sandbags in my bed? Can I take this on the beach or is that a bad idea? Is there any added traction in the snow with ECT Power on/off?

    Welcome to TW! Congrats on the pick up. It would probably be a good idea to stay off the beach, unless it's super packed, like after a massive rain. I took my 5 lug on the beach often, but got stuck many times too.
